Baldwin BAL-5165.044.PASS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin 5165 passage lever fit a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Baldwin 5165 passage leverset covers doors from 1.37 inches up to 1.75 inches thick, so both a 1-3/8 inch older interior door and a 1-3/4 inch door are within range. It uses a 2-3/8 inch backset and the standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep, so on an existing bored door you normally don't touch the wood.
2) Does the Baldwin 5165 lever lock or have a privacy button?
No. It's a passage set, which means the lever always retracts the latch from both sides. There is no key, no turn button, and no privacy function. Use it on halls, closets, and pantry doors. For a bedroom or bathroom you need a privacy set instead.
3) Do I have to order the Baldwin 5165 handed for a left or right door?
No handing to specify. The 5165 lever is reversible, so one part number works on a left- or right-hand door and you set it at install.
4) Is the Baldwin 5165 passage lever suitable for a commercial building or an apartment corridor?
It's built and catalogued as residential hardware, so it suits homes, condos, and light multi-family interiors. For commercial traffic or a spec that calls for a graded lock, go to something like the Falcon K101, a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lever. If a Grade 2 is enough, the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
5) My doors are bored at a 2-3/4 inch backset. Can I still use the Baldwin 5165?
Not as supplied. The 5165 is a 2-3/8 inch backset set, which is the common residential dimension. If your bore centers sit 2-3/4 inches from the door edge, you'd need a lock that offers that backset, such as the Cal-Royal AG03 lever, which is a 2-3/4 inch backset unit. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before ordering.
6) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Baldwin 5165 passage lever for a corridor or office door?
The Baldwin 5165 with 5046 rose is a residential passage leverset in a round rose. For commercial openings, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, also fire rated. Both carry an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 rating suited to higher-traffic commercial corridors.
7) Which passage levers are the closest equivalent to the Baldwin 5165 for a hall or closet door?
The Baldwin 5165 is a tubular passage leverset with a round rose and reversible handing. Comparable passage/hall/closet levers with round trim include the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando, both Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, and the Bravura Miramar passage leverset in US4 Satin Brass, also Grade 2. The Baldwin 5165 is offered in eight finishes including 044 Satin Brass, 055 Polished Nickel and 190 Satin Black.
8) The Baldwin 5165 passage lever will not lock - what do I use on a bedroom or bathroom door instead?
The Baldwin 5165 is a passage function set with no privacy or locking feature, so it is not suitable for a bath or bedroom. For a privacy function, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy leverset for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inch.
9) What keyed lever should I pair with the Baldwin 5165 passage set on an entry or office door?
The Baldwin 5165 is non-keyed passage only. For a keyed opening in the same run, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with lever handle for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inch, the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 entry/office lever, and the Cal-Royal AG00 is an entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset - the same backset the 5165 uses.
10) Can the Baldwin 5165 be used on a classroom or storeroom door?
No. The Baldwin 5165 is passage function, so the latch is always retractable from both sides with no key control. For those openings, the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 classroom lever is keyed with a clutching mechanism for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for the same thickness range.
11) Which Grade 1 passage lever is closest in function to the Baldwin 5165 for a school or hospital corridor?
Matching the passage/hall/closet function of the Baldwin 5165 at Grade 1, the Dexter C1000 passage lever is a Grade 1 non-keyed clutching cylindrical lever for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, which is close to the 1.375 to 1.75 inch range the 5165 covers, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology.
12) How far does the Baldwin 5165 lever stick out from the door, and how long is the lever?
Projection off the door face is 2.5 inches and the lever grip length is 4.58 inches. Worth checking against a door that swings back against a wall or a narrow return, and against a door casing where a long lever could catch.
13) What comes in the box with the Baldwin 5165 passage set, or do I need to buy a latch and strike?
The passage set ships with everything needed to mount it on the door, latch and strike included. Nothing extra to specify beyond the finish.
14) What is the difference between the Baldwin 5165 passage set and a dummy lever?
The 5165 is a working tubular passage lock: it has a latchbolt the lever retracts, so it holds the door shut. A dummy is trim only, surface mounted, with no latch, used on a fixed leaf of a pair or a closet door with a ball catch. If that's what you need, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever or the Emtek Cortina dummy pair are dummy options.
15) Will the round 5046 rose cover the old holes from the lever I'm taking off?
The 5165 uses a round 5046 rose on the standard 2-1/8 inch bore, so it sits over a normal cylindrical prep. Where it can fall short is a previous set with a large decorative rose or escutcheon that left paint or finish shadow outside the round trim, since the rose only covers the bore area. Measure the exposed ring on the door before you pull the old set.
16) I need a matching contemporary passage lever but not from Baldwin. What else is there?
Among round-rose passage levers, the Bravura Miramar and Bravura Atlanta are Grade 2 passage sets with round trim, and the Bravura Tampa is the square-trim version if you want a squared look. Kwikset's 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Those are lighter-duty residential sets than the Baldwin.
17) Is a dummy lever the same as the Baldwin 5165 passage lever?
No. The Baldwin 5165 passage set has a working latch that retracts when the lever is turned, and includes everything needed to install onto the door. A dummy lever is surface-mounted trim with no latch at all - examples include the Emtek Cortina dummy pair, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC single dummy trim. Use a dummy only on a fixed or inactive leaf.
18) I need the same look but with a square rose instead of round - what should I order?
The Baldwin 5165 pairs with the 5046 round rose. If the opening calls for square trim, the Bravura Tampa is a Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim in the same passage/hall/closet function.
19) What passage lever should I standardize on across an apartment building instead of the Baldwin 5165?
The Baldwin 5165 is a residential passage leverset. For fleet standardization where a higher duty rating is wanted, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever in the 5300 Series, the Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 flat-lever passage lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Design Hardware X75 is the Grade 1 version of that flat lever passage set.
20) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever that replaces a Baldwin 5165 passage set on a back-of-house door?
The Baldwin 5165 is non-keyed passage with no code entry. If the door needs code control, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination, passage function, for doors 1-1/8 to 2 inch.
21) What is a simpler passage lever than the Baldwin 5165 for a closet door?
The Baldwin 5165 is a contemporary passage leverset with a 4.58 inch lever grip and 2.5 inch projection. For a plainer closet or hall application, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage leverset for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, the Kwikset 200DL Delta is a reversible Grade 3 hall/closet passage lever with adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel.
